Review this game
Mar 12, 2014It is an old game so obviously its graphics are not the best but where it misses in that department bringing in the biggest Nintendo characters to dual it out this would be the beginning of a great series of games to come. Agreeably one of the most fun N64 games ever created.
Feb 8, 2014Great and fun game . A quite good selection of playable characters and a fun gameplay
Also a good multiplayer game and you and your friends will enjoy playing it
Nov 11, 2013Super Smash Bros. One of my most favorite growing up as a kid, I loved this game to death so many memories, & I was extremely hard to beat at any character in my family of gamers. I just wish there was more characters you could play as.
Nov 11, 2013THE GOOD: Fluid combat, start of a fantastic fighting game series. The game is memorable in its own right.
THE BAD: This game simply hasn't aged as well as its sequels on the Gamecube and Wii. It also lacks the large amount of content and game modes of its successors. The character cast is also barebones compared to them.
This classic title can admittedly be fun for a few hours, but it overall lives in the shadow of its superior sequels. I guess I could say its worth either borrowing or renting.… Expand
Nov 3, 2013i have to admit this game was innovative
charismatic characters of nintendo was a good idea
Super smash bros was a good game,actually,
but i think it was a something simple
i mean,nintendo has a lot of franchise and they should put
more character.however
Oct 19, 2013Super smash bros is a fighting game Which brings nintendo all stars to the fight. 12 characters to choose from and 9 stages The single player gets old but the multiplayer is wher this game shine and this is a party game for you to enjoy with your friends
Sep 14, 2013The multiplayer in Super Smash Bros is fun, the graphics are cartoonish, but single player is just repetitive. The controls are clunky, jumping is stiff and hard often mainly because of using up for jump. Seriously, WHY "UP" FOR JUMP!? why can't I use "A" to jump? who ever came up with using "up" for jump is a real dick sucking moron! (Sorry, I had to say it) The minigames are BORING! Target smash is dull, the platforms can go f*** themselves, racing to the finish isn't so bad. The characters are really weak but the worst fighting character in this game is Jigglypuff, oh my ****ing god where do I even begin... why does Jigglypuff suck you may ask? well, she's slow, her punches and kicks are weak, and her sing is irritating at times.
Super Smash Bros. is fun at times but can bore you out quickly. Score: 2/5.… Expand
Aug 10, 2013This was the first fighting game I ever played and as a first I will say it was really fun. However this game was for the 64 and lets just say that system only had like five games that were longer then twenty hours long. Ocarina of time is one of those games that at the time was really long and needed to be so because of the story. Super Smash Bros. is a beat em' up and that is why I played it, I finally got to fight my brother and no one could stop me. I am really hard on Nintendo because their games were my childhood, I played and still play old 64 and SNES games cause of the simple fact that they are really fun. Smash Bros. is the original fighter for me but it has so many problems. The one problem that makes me kinda annoyed is that the game is way to short. I get that its made for multiplayer but that doesn't make me forget that I had all the characters in less than ten hours. I also hate that it looks so bad, I get that it looks that way because of the lack of graphical technology at the time but it really doesn't hold up. There is no story either but like I said earlier I like that it just as is, the songs were all from there own games which is really awesome and can at times make you switch out games cause lets face it Pokemon stadium a little bit more fun than this game. In the end this is a really great game that has one the best cult followings I have ever seen for a Nintendo game it has been made just as popular as the characters that you play as, this is a must play for all gamers.… Expand
Jul 3, 2013After playing Melee and Brawl especially, the flaws are obvious, but this is still a great game. A new, original idea when it came out. The ultimate crossover between the ultimate video game characters of all time? SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
May 3, 2013NIntendo's All-Star characters duke it out for the win! Bring your friends to see who is the best in this four player insanity. With the help of items in the mix, use them to gain an advantage against your opponents. Although variety of modes are limited, they are nonetheless going to create long hours of gameplay. Controls are precise and each character have their own move-sets to master. There are a some amount of stages to choose from, at least one from each character (Hyrule Castle from the Legend of Zelda). Each certain accomplishment earns more stages and characters; both have a limited amount to unlock. For those who don't have anyone to play with, they can defeat CPU characters to compensate in multiplayer, but it is not the same as going against human opponents; this can eventually can lead to a dull experience. However, the solo player are able to play single player mode, which is a ladder-style type of game; going against opponents one by one until you reach the final boss. This game is a good game to play on the N64 platform, especially if you have friends to play beside you and against you.… Expand
Mar 8, 2013In multiplayer mode super smash bros. is a beast. Together with some friends it is a real joy to kick the others out of the screen. The single player however is repetitive. Anyway its a fun game, especially in the multiplayer.
Feb 3, 2013Super Smash Bros. is the best Nintendo 64 game out there, hands down! After all these years since 1999, it still stands the test of time and is a great buy! It is fun by yourself as well as with friends. If you ever really want to feel in control of a video game, I would suggest to you Castlevania IV or Super Smash Bros. The controls are solid and easy to pickup. The game is based on some wit and a good deal of skill and that is what makes it such a great time. Every match had me on the edge of my seat and what makes it even better is that it is with all my favorite Nintendo characters! Such an original idea that has been attempted again and again by different companies, but never got it quite as right as this gem! There are only a few minor negative things I would have to say about it. First, I dislike how limited the game is both with story and characters/stages. Second, the price tag, while definitely worth it, will usually cost a pretty penny at around $30 due to great demand. Lastly, some of the characters feel very powerful over the others in multiplayer such as DK, Samus, and Kirby; all with moves that take over the other players unfairly. The negative aspects listed are really minor inconveniences in the whole of the game. Overall, I highly suggest this to anyone who likes good games, which is pretty much everyone!… Expand
Feb 2, 2013A very enjoyable fighter. The visuals are decent with colorful settings in spite of a somewhat low polygon count and somewhat blurry textures. The game is simple in its control scheme and is pretty fluid in the physics and maneuvering. Single player can get a bit repetitive because of a rather low amount of modes and unlocks, but is still pretty fun to play. The multiplayer is the strongest part to this game, and offers fun times with your friends while not getting too old. The low-budget music also sounds great, and is pretty catchy, although I do prefer Melee's and Brawl's music over this. Level design is nice and gameplay is fun and addicting. While I do think this game safely earns third place to its two predecessors and is better for those who would rather experience nostalgia, it's still an awesomely fun game. Great addition to your N64 library, or for your Wii Virtual Console.… Expand
Dec 30, 2012The single player mode is very flawed, and the sequels would eventually grow to outshine the original, but its one of the best Nintendo 64 experiences out there.
Sep 29, 2012I don't want to do a pros and cons list this time. I just want to say how good the game is. It's a lot of fun, especially when playing with your friends. There are some slight flaws, but the game quickly rewards you with a fast paced, enjoyable experience that you can share with 3 of your friends.
Aug 14, 2012Although the single player mode is not particularly good, it is an excellent multiplayer game which will keep you and your friends entertained for hours. The later titles in this franchise have improved and expanded the concept of this game, but the original stands firm as a quality game in its own right, and still plenty of fun after all these years.
May 27, 2012A true classic. Masterpiece. Revolutionary. This game is one of my favorite games of all time. Such a blast to play with friends. This game will never get old. Some of the greatest moments with friends ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 22, 2012Great game with a great idea: all our favourite characters fighting again each other. Very funny and long game. If you can play with friends is still better.
Mar 21, 2012Smash Bros can be a blast to play. There are tons of game modes and the fighting gameplay has changed fighting games forever. However, I don't think the series really hits it's peak until its sequel, Super Smash Bros. Melee, was released.
Feb 11, 2012Boy, does this game bring back some good memories. It was one of my favorite N64 games to play. my only only complaint about it is the fact that single player mode is the same every time. But, that's, pretty much it for me. Plus, Ness is better in this version than he is in Melee or Brawl.
Dec 9, 2011I loved this game, I played it for countless hours. The campaign is a little boring though but it was worth it to unlock the new characters for the game. The multiplayer was where it was at though and it was countless fun to play with friends.
Nov 20, 2011Super Smash Bros. is a wonderful four-player party game with a low barrier for entry, but plenty of depth to separate players. It's frantic pace makes it easily enjoyable for competitive, reflex-based gameplay that holds up to this day. Unfortunately, the game's single-player experience doesn't entertain nearly as well, being far too short and quite easy.
Jun 7, 2011This was a revolutionary game in its time. There had never been anything like it before and there honestly isn't a single game out there today that compares to the series despite several attempts to mimic it. It all started with this brilliant title. Electric Playground should be banished from both the gaming community and stripped of any recognition as a reliable game journalism source. You can't even read the original review anymore because you get a 404 error. Honestly a 20? Bias and opinion is completely out of the window here...I've heard more reasonable opinions from ten year olds.… Expand
May 26, 2011No, this game is not as superior as its sequels, but the quality action and amount of items keep things ship-shape. And who doesn't want to see Yoshi take revenge on Mario for all the times the plumber chucked him off a cliff?
Mar 16, 2011Yo Halo: I'm really happy for you... Imma let you finish,
but Super Smash Bros. is simply the best multiplayer video game of ALL TIME.
of ALL TIME!!!
Mar 10, 2011I own everyone at this game
L canceling, dodging, smashing
Best game ever, other than OoT on the n64 Your review must be at least 150 characters long.

A multi-player hit. Believe me people, you and your friends will spend hours on end battling it out to the very end. Whether it's 2 on 2 or if you think you're a badass 3 on 1.
A highly addictive and satisfying game. Super Smash Bros. is a classic game for the Nintendo 64. If you haven't played it or its successor, and there certainly aren't many of you kinds of people, what are you waiting for? Do it!
Fast paced and accessible to everyone. Nintendo of America were mad to consider not releasing this game in the US. Any doubts about it's quality should be cast out of your mind. It's fun, addictive and it's got a superb multi-player mode.

GT Zaskar Carbon 100 9R Team 29er Mountain Bike - 2013There is an overwhelming amount of choice when it comes to picking a bike for any given trail system. However, it all boils down to how you like to ride. There are three kinds of cross-country mountain bikers. The first kind is measured in their effort and loves the journey, not necessarily the destination. The second kind wants to tear the cover off the trail with blistering speed and conquer technical challenges. The third kind doesn't care what lies ahead-- they've got the 2013 GT Zaskar Carbon 100 9R Team and they can do whatever they feel like.
Mountain bikes are made of other people's stuff, like SRAM or Easton. What is distinctly GT is what sets this bike apart from the rest. GT uses their patented and proven I-Drive full suspension technology. An Independent Drivetrain requires fewer pivots or less linkage to save precious weight and allows the suspension to focus solely on what it's supposed to do: handle the trail. Regardless of how the rear wheel moves, the I-Drive design won't pull on the chain, crank or pedals. This insulates the rider from suspension induced feedback and results in pedaling efficiency. The rear wheel path is left to follow the force of impact on its own, which means reduced drag, preserved momentum and a faster, smoother ride. Now, let's talk about carbon.
GT's proprietary FOC Ultra carbon frame methodology allows them to make a bike that doesn't flex in ways it shouldn't: while pedaling, steering or from impact forces. They use the fewest layers of high-modulus carbon possible to achieve a stiff, reliable and responsive ride. The Zaskar Carbon 100 frame features 100mm of travel and a tapered 1 ½" head tube improves steering response, reduces flex and provides greater impact deflection at high speeds in rough terrain.
Fox is widely recognized as a leader in fork design and performance. The Zaskar Carbon Pro features the all-new Fox Float 32 CTD FIT 29 fork, with 100mm of travel, and a gorgeous ride-enhancing Kashima coat. While the name is a convoluted mouthful, the design couldn't have been made easier for any rider to use. Forks in general have become over-complicated to tune. Lockout, rebound, preload, both high speed and low speed compression -- it can be overwhelming. The new CTD design (Climb, Trail, Descend) utilizes one lever to quickly switch the compression to the ideal setting. The Climb setting adds low-speed compression to diminish bobbing when standing on the pedals. Trail mode presents moderate low speed compression to balance efficiency and the Descend setting features the ideal blend of high and low speed compression for plush action on steep and aggressive sections of trail. The rear shock is an equally matched Fox Float CTD with a Kashima coating, rebound and compression adjust, and a remote. Really, this is as good as it gets.
Incredibly light and efficient components decorate the Zaskar Carbon Pro. A Shimano XTR drive train supplies all of the lightning fast shifting and braking accuracy you need. The Formula R1 hydraulic brakes generate more than enough power and performance for an All-Mountain or Enduro use. The forged master cylinder body and caliper provide increased modulation, braking power and durability, while the R1's patented caliper piston system increases fluid capacity in the caliper providing stability and fade resistance even on the longest descent. Oh, and the brakes way a mere 270 grams.
The GT Zaskar Carbon 100 Pro is simply decked out with high end technology from brands like Crank Brothers, Truvativ, Selle Italia and Easton. At just 1745 grams, the Easton EA70 XCT wheels are incredibly light for their added durability. They feature butted spokes and welded aluminum UST rims, so you can run them tubeless.
Great components and technology make the 2013 GT Zasker Carbon 100 Pro cross-country mountain bike a terrific choice to handle any trail at any time of year.

I swapped these out on my Les Paul, perfect fit. The locks work great and they are very smooth tuners that stay.
These machine heads are fantastic and the finish is beautiful. I install them on all my guitars with temolo systems and are the exact replacement for the regular Grovers used on Gibson Les Pauls. Absolutely no slippage when tremolo is applied. I have purchased the gold and chrome ones and they match beautifully the hardware on the guitars.
when making my guitars, I ONLY use these. THEY ARE THE BEST. Period.
These were ordered for my own Epi Dot. The minus is weight-for me, this is the only negative. I have always had good results with Grover products. This guitar had the first set of Grovers that lost tune. The locking feature was partly from frustration, but I knew that a Bigsby was in the future for this guitar. I fully lock after a couple of winds with overlap. I view this as a protection from cutting-the ultimate clamping is "cushioned". It takes some extra time for the tune to settle but I consider this to be tolerable. I have the option to bypass those wraps. As noted by others, one must use discretion in backing off the thumbwheel to avoid having the "guts" fall out-one cannot be mindless-my brain works well enough that being warned, it has never happened.
Grover lockers are some of the best out there. Guitars go in tune quick, and they stay there. I have never had a set fail one me. Between these and Hipshot, you should have all of your needs covered.
I have put three sets on three guitars in the last few years and I just love them. The Les Paul is just a great fit for these tuning machines. It's one less point to not worry about, staying in tune, with these baby's are just no problem. Peace of mind.
The product seems decent but if you look at the specs tab you will see the differences in dimensions vs. the "original" full size grovers. Why do this? Wouldn't the market for the locking tuners typically be as an upgrade to replace standard non-locking grovers? Why not make them and perfect match and why not offer them in the same finishes - i.e. NICKEL (which I have) is not offered in the roto grip.
At first I thought the roto's were slightly larger but they are actually slightly smaller than the originals - making them slightly larger might make sense to "cover" any marks in the finish left by the originals. But smaller? I can't think of a reason.
I didn't ding the "star rating" but It seems like it would be a no brainer to make them the same exact physical specs for a perfect drop in replacement.
This is an awesome product! It fits perfectly into
A Gibson Les Paul that is already stocked with regular Grover's. But if you install on a Gibson with the original tunning pegs, you will be able to see the top screw holes from the originals.
these are nice solid tuner.ya cant go wrong with grovers highly recommend them
Great tuners: very easy string change, precise tuning, and keeps by Les Paul in tune even after using the Bigsby a lot and hard during a tune.

Ubuntu six pack DVDHow does one go about creating such a DVD? Ubuntu is obviously the base boot, but how do you add the VirtualBox files to the live DVD? Is the ISO file first extracted to the HD, the VirtualBox files added, then converted as a new ISO file? Just curious about how this DVD was made.
Swap PartitionHi, I'm trying to do a manual partition install using the standard Ubuntu edition to have a separate /home and /usr/bin. The options on the list of partitions doesn't include a swap partition. When continuing the install it protests at not having a swap partition. Any ideas?
Linux base is corrupt on the DVDTried to do a text install, but got a message stating that Packages.gz is corrupt. How do I get a replacement DVD?

sixpack + virtualboxHow to install Virtualbox available in sixpack DVD in my desktop with Ubuntu 8.04. I can able to use virtualbox only when booted with live boot option.
Is the DVD available for downloadHello,
I recently received my first issue (August 2008) of Linux Pro Magazine as my "upgrade" from my Linux Magazine subscription. I found that I really like Linux Pro Magazine, but my copy did not include the DVD with the multiple "flavors" of Ubuntu 8.10, which I would like to try out.
My question is, is the DVD image available for download.?
Peter Yellman
There are 6 distros on the DVD...If you click on the VirtualBox logo on the desktop you can start 3 other Ubuntu variants as live distros within that environment. If you want to install one of those or access the remaining two ones you need to transfer them onto a bootable medium, preferably a CD, first.
You need to burn CDs from the isos which are stored on the DVD in the /virtualbox/ISO-Images/ directory and boot into them. Then you can install these Ubuntu variants.
Only Ubuntu DistroThis DVD only contains Ubuntu Distro....
Where are the additional Ubuntu variants?The DVD also contains Ubuntu Studio and Edubuntu which aren't live distros. For that we weren't able to integrate them into the Virtualbox environment. You need to burn CDs from the isos which are stored on the DVD in the /virtualbox/ISO-Images/ directory and boot into them.
WHERE IS UBUNTU STUDIO?SIXPACK?-NO,three only.I have been misled-the DVD does not contain UBUNTU STUDIO.Or does it? If not, this is a very poor form of advertising.
ubuntu dvddvd loads, but then asks for a username
after trying it says user ubuntu will log on, but it doesn't.
Is this a problem with my machine or should something be entered?

Planned Parenthood Congratulates Al Franken on Being Sworn in as U.S. Senator
The Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) and Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota (PPMNS) congratulate Senator Al Franken on being sworn in as the junior senator from Minnesota.
Senator Al Franken has been a strong supporter and advocate for womens health and womens rights. We look forward to working with him on important issues, such as health care reform and womens access to reproductive health care. With Senator Al Franken in office, we are one step further along in protecting womens health, preventing unintended and teen pregnancies, and ensuring a safe and healthy future for women and families, said PPFA President Cecile Richards.
On this important day, we congratulate Senator Al Franken and look forward to having another strong advocate for the health and well-being of Minnesota women and families working in Washington, said Sarah Stoesz, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota. He is a pro-choice and pro-womens health champion who will be a strong voice for Minnesota, especially working to protect and promote womens health and prevent unintended pregnancy.
Senator Franken has long been a champion of womens health and centered his campaign around the need for health care access for all Minnesotans.
Health care reform is being debated in Congress and Minnesotans deserve to have two United States senators representing our interests in Washington. PPMNS is pleased that Senator Franken will be a strong voice for womens health during this historic debate, Stoesz said.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America is the nation's leading sexual and reproductive health care advocate and provider. We believe that everyone has the right to choose when or whether to have a child, and that every child should be wanted and loved. Planned Parenthood affiliates operate more than 850 health centers nationwide, providing medical services and sexuality education for millions of women, men, and teenagers each year. We also work with allies worldwide to ensure that all women and men have the right and the means to meet their sexual and reproductive health care needs.

Albany >Food & Dining > Shik Do Rock Korean Restaurant
1137 Solano Ave, Albany, CA | Directions 9470637.890474 -122.297685
Mon - Fri, 11:30am - 10pm; Sat, 11:30am - midnight
Neighborhoods: Albany
A great little Korean Restaurant – My wife and I love Shik Do Rock (which translates as Epicurean), and go there at least once a month, if not more. Contrary to the crazy (!!) reviews I've been reading, the staff is very friendly and sweet, and they remembered our orders by heart, even after just the first two visits.
We're both vegetarian, so Korean food in general can be a little intimidating. But the vegetarian dolsot bibimbap (hot stone pot with sizzing rice, tofu, veggies, and mushrooms) is so delicious, healthy, and satisfying that we keep going back for more. It comes with or without egg, so it's easy to order a completely vegan meal.
Also they bring about 6 or 7 small side dishes to eat while you wait. I love the sprouts, and especially the yam noodles. I also love the tea they serve.
Only go if you are desperate – I'm from LA and next to actually grubbing in Korea, Los Angeles has the best Korean food in the states.I just moved here last week and was dying to try some good Korea food.I was lookin forward to having some decent food at Shikdorak(after findin them on the internet) so I ordered three dishes to test out the cooking skills of this place.Kalbi, daengjang jigae, & dak do ri tang. The waitress there, "In-ah" made a very rude/inappropriate remark about why I was ordering three dishes.I told her I was comparing the dishes to Korea Town in LA and that it wasn't that odd at all. She went on to say that she thought it was weird and that I was the first person to do so. Hm, can you say--ignorant? Jeez, people, get out in the world. Ordering three dishes at a restaurant might be tad extravagant but not like having four arms. She was incredibly weird, giggling, insecure, catty and not to mention, uneducated.
I ate a little of the kalbi and jigae but the dak do ri tang was TERRIBLE. Worst I've ever had. If you're in a pinch and want some kimchi and something that resembles Korean food, ok--it might do the trick. Other wise? Skip it.
Shik Do Rock is Pretty Good – Ownership has changed again. But, wow what a change. The restaurant has had a wonderful face lift. The food has remained the same. It's good and fresh.

The Raiders have waived linebacker Rolando McClain. McClain was owed $4 million in 2013 and $5.8 million in 2014. The Raiders have been expected to release McClain, and allowed him to explore trade options. The Raiders signed three new linebacker starters, leaving little room and no use for McClain.
Once he hits the open market, McClain should generate some interest from other teams. Once a No. 8 draft pick, McClain was a bust for the Raiders with off-field issues and limited coverage ability. Still, he's only 23-years-old and a good run defender.
With McClain waived, Darren McFadden is the only first-rounder from the last 10 years still on the Raiders roster.
The Ravens should give him a shot. The have a couple seasoned linebackers he could learn from and a little more stable team to play for. They need a run stopper in the middle after the departures.
It says Rolando should generate some interest from other teams. I didn't realize some many teams would be interested in a slow, uninspiring, non-disruptive on the field, very disruptive off the field linebacker. Hmmm...

At a Hospitality Sales & Marketing Association International (HSMAI) and the New York University Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism and Travel Administration "Executive Think" interactive conference on October 17 in New York City, Mark Lomanno, president of Smith Travel Research, noted that there were certain dynamics in the marketplace before Sept. 11 with demand having begun to decline five months prior. Lomanno also noted that as a result of September 11th, major metro areas are experiencing a greater negative impact, doing four times worse than all other markets.
Bjorn Hanson, global partner, hospitality and leisure, PricewaterhouseCoopers, added: "The year 2000 ended with 84 percent occupancy, a 50-year high. In comparison, the year 2001 will finish at 70 percent occupancy." Hanson is predicting at least 10 outright hotel failures and noted that New York City lost 1,380 rooms or two percent of its total supply. However, he added, the outlook is not as bleak as it sounds because in 1990 the hotel industry lost $5.7 billion, but in 2001, the industry, as a whole, will make $20 billion, primarily because operating expenses have been cut and interest expense is down. There are also fewer employees in a larger industry because of the addition of technology," he added.
Peter Yesawich, president and CEO of Yesawich, Pepperdine & Brown, reported the findings of a just-completed study of consumer travel plans by his company. Yesawich said, "It is difficult to look into the future with any certainty....The climate is now right to turn to the market with promotions and advertising to generate travel...It is important to take into consideration the sensitivities that people feel."

Ultimate X-Men is amazing fact.
Ultimates has been okay as of late. But it is, what it is, and the upcoming story arc looks fun.
Ultimate Spider-Man #16.1 is amazing. And I have found USM fun from its start to the current issues. So if you have enjoyed the current volume its still as good as its been, so if you've liked all the issues thus far, then jump back on. But if you have not liked this current volume at all, you most likely won't still like it.
Anyway I say if you can only pick one of the three books go for Ultimate X-Men as I've said above its amazing. I myself love the art and the writing is great. If you can, I say pick up Ultimate Spider-Man again. Starting with #16.1 and maybe jump on, on next issue again.
If you are willing to wait I know Marvel is releasing the complete DWF, UWS in a single hard cover which has
Ultimate Comics X-Men 13-18, Ultimate Comics Ultimates 13-18, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man (2011) 13-17
Amazon has it for $22.60 which is cheaper than if you go through comixolgie or ebay.
Here is the link; http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Comic...nited+we+stand
Pull: Avengers, New Avengers, Mighty Avengers, Captain America, Superior Spider-Man, Superior S.M.T.U, Ultimate Universe, Chew, Invincible, Batman & Smallville.
Ultimates is....well, there's room for improvement. And I think that's going to happen. But it's worth a look. Ultimate comic X Men is the best X book around, even if it does have bloody Iceman front and centre! I don't read Spiderman so I can't comment on that, but the other two are worth picking up.
I just got back into them myself with Divided We Fall and have enjoyed them very much. I also went back and got quite a bit of the back issues following Ultimatum and have really gotten back into the UU.
It's funny I got back into the Ultimate titles because I wanted to cut my spending cost and figured it was 3 (4 when they run things like Ultimate Comics Iron Man) titles that fit together in a nice package.
I also am returning to ultimate comics. I stopped reading at the end of of the original ultimate spidey. Just picked up ultimatium, still have to pick up the death of spiderman and the new black guy. Forgot how much I enjoyed Ultimate Spiderman till I started rereading the old series.
Thanks, ill think about getting back into it

X-men Supreme
Personally, I've always found the ultimate line to be hit or miss. I feel like it really stumbled through ultimatum, and hasn't quite been able to get it's act together since. USM was the highlight for me, and I'm actually looking to get back into it, but I feel like getting into the whole thing as a line ends up being too costly for too little quality.
Honestly, Ultimatum put such a bad taste in mouth, I still taste crap nuggets when I pick up an Ultimate book. I would probably would pick up all three, if they went down to 2.99. Marvel seems to have put the whole line on the back burner.This is definitely no longer the gold standard.

The GRASP Project has created an algorithmic-level graphical representation for software called the Control Structure Diagram (CSD). The CSD was created to improve the comprehension efficiency of Ada source code and, as a result, improve software reliability and reduce software costs. Since its creation, the CSD has been expanded and adapted to include other languages. GRASP provides the capability to generate CSD's from Ada 95, C, C++, Java, and VHDL source code in both a reverse and forward engineering mode with a level of flexibility suitable for professional application. GRASP has been integrated with the GNU family of compilers for Ada (GNAT) and C (gcc), and Sun's javac compiler for Java. Use of GRASP is not restricted to these compilers, however. This has resulted in a comprehensive graphically-based development environment for these languages. The user may view, edit, print, and compile source code as CSDs with no discernible addition to storage or computational overhead.

The scene I chose from the film is where Yossi goes to visit and confront Lior (Jagger's) parents.
In "Yossi and Jagger," after Lior's death, Yossi visits Lior's parents to sit shivah, the Jewish week of mourning. It was there that his friend Yaeli explained that Lior was called "Jagger" by his friends because, "in our eyes he was like a rock star."
It was important for me to shoot this scene in the same location we shot Jagger's parents home in "Yossi and Jagger." Ten years have passed and everyone has gotten a little older including the actual husband and wife who own and live in the house. The same location enabled Ohad Knoller (who plays Yossi) to really feel that he was returning to "the scene of the crime" to start dealing with that trauma, to start a healing process. We went into the house and shot as is. No art or props were added except for a framed picture of their dead son and Yossi's lover (played by Yehuda Levi). The scene starts at the door. Jagger's mother who is actually a patient of Dr Guttmann (Yossi) is alarmed to see him. She thinks he might have come to talk to her about her health. Why else would her doctor be at her door at 7AM in the morning? When the cinematographer suggested Ohad sit on the sofa with his back to the wall I said, "No, he has to sit at the exact same place he sat last time- opposite the parents who are with their back to the wall. We started shooting early in the morning and tried to keep that natural early morning light. The Alexa works quite well with very minimal use of lightning. The sound design is built of only birds and distant traffic. The location of Hezeliya is a quiet suburb of Tel Aviv.
In this scene, Yossi has been driving aimlessly all night and fell asleep in his car in front of the parents' house. He is ready to really talk to them. I directed Ohad not to look in the parents' eyes until the very last seconds of his revealing monologue. We cut to only one reaction shot of the parents. I wanted to keep the audience connected with Yossi, in his soul. As we did in "Yossi and Jagger," watching this young army commander who could not say a thing to the parents about his love story with their son.

Comments about Put Out the Fire Adult Womens Costume:
Fun, fun, fun!!! What a sexy costume. the colors are virbant and the dress was comfortable to ware once we did a few adjustment to it. ( it had to much room in the top for me)
The fire extinguisher holds about a half gallon. we did have a little trouble at first with the spout leakeing and was fixed with a little warm water. And then about half way throu the party the hose came off the spout and we were not able to fix it till we got back home. He made a handle for me to hold it. I hope it will work better this up comeing weekend for our next party. It looks like it will. I gave this costume a 3 star because the spout, I think this was a very fun costume to ware and would say a prety good buy over all.
Just go easy on the spout and make sure you have time to do a little tucking if your average on top, the rest will fit nicely!!!
they will be on there knees begging for more !!!

Comments about Put Out the Fire Adult Womens Costume:
I love how I didn't have to purchase the extras separately. The hat and the fire extinguisher came along with the dress! My favorite part is that you can put your own beverage in the extinguisher and quench as needed;-)

In the late '80s and early '90s, Emma Thompson was best known for serious film projects such as her Oscar-winning turn in Howard's End and her starring roles in Much Ado About Nothing, The Remains of the Day and Sense and Sensibility.
She's proud of those credits, but the 53-year-old British actor is extremely excited about her most recent work.
"In my 30s, I was more drawn to literary-type dramas. But this year I'm doing the most wonderful work of my life because I'm getting to do a little bit of everything," Thompson told the .
That's high praise, considering Thompson has starred in such a variety of movies, including the Harry Potter and Nanny McPhee films.
In Beautiful Creatures, Thompson does double duty as the Bible-thumping hater of all supernatural, Mrs. Lincoln, and the wickedly menacing witch Sarafine.
"The character was fun to do because it was this blend of sexy and a church lady," she says. "That's what sold me on doing the movie."
There are points, such as when the witch inhabits the woman's body, that Thompson plays the role with such unabashed fun she ends up skipping through the scene. She also had fun with the Southern accent, which to her is as much about attitude as it is about how you sound.
Although the film's based on a series of teen novels by Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia, Thompson opted not to read the books before the filming started. She wanted to discover the character on her own. For her, there's always the "wonderful opportunity to find things accidentally."
One of the scenes in which she gets to have the most fun is a showdown between her character and the one played by Jeremy Irons. Beautiful Creatures is the first time they have worked together.
Thompson praised Irons for being the strong acting partner who helped her get the most out of the scene. Irons returned the compliment, saying that it's lovely to work with great actors. "It makes acting fun," he said.
There's a heavy fantasy element to Beautiful Creatures, but director Richard LaGravenese was determined to use as little computer-generated imagery as possible. That put extra pressure on Thompson.
"When we got to the scene where I had to make this transformation, I did it all with just my face," she says.
Thompson started her career on stage, but she made the jump to films in 1989 with Richard Curtis romantic comedy The Tall Guy, co-starring Jeff Goldblum. That opened the door for her to be in a movie that's become a Christmas classic: Love Actually, also written by Curtis.
She describes working on Love Actually — a film that blends multiple love story lines, including hers as a woman whose husband has not acted faithfully — as a wonderful acting job because the movie can go from making you cry in the middle to laughing at the end.
Thompson's career is heavy on drama. But those who have worked with her agree she has a wonderful sense of humor. Emmy Rossum, who plays another wicked witch in Beautiful Creatures, says: "You can't get a more fun human than Emma Thompson. She's intelligent, sensitive, smart, hysterically [wet]-your-pants funny."

Munich taking final game seriously
Bayern Munich may have already qualified for the Champions League knockout stages but coach Jupp Heynckes is adamant his side will still get ``stuck in'' against BATE Borisov as they bid to secure top spot in Group F.
Both Bayern and Valencia have 10 points and will progress from the group to the last 16 regardless of the Wednesday's results.
The Bundesliga side know a win will be enough to earn them the sought after first place and will be confident against BATE Borisov, who have struggled in the group after they won their first two games which included a shock 3-1 defeat of Bayern.
Bayern boss Heynckes was in a defiant mood when speaking to reporters ahead of tomorrow's clash.
``We have to get stuck in properly, this is not a friendly game,'' Heynckes said.
A first-placed finish could earn an easier path through the last 16, but the 67-year-old knows this competition takes no prisoners when it reaches the knockout stages.
Real Madrid and AC Milan look set to fill runners up spots in their respective groups and Heynckes is not expecting an easy passage.
His plans were also dealt a blow after centre back Holger Badstuber underwent surgery on Monday for cruciate ligament damage suffered in his right knee during last weekend's 1-1 draw against champions Borussia Dortmund.
Heynckes said: ``Either way, it is difficult in the second round.
``Holger's loss is a big loss. I hope that we can compensate for that in other areas.''
Jerome Boateng and Dante are likely to fill-in the the centre of defence but Luiz Gustavo and Arjen Robben will also miss out for Bayern due to injury.
Midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger knows his side need to avoid complacency following Bayern's defeat by BATE earlier in the tournament.
``It was a warning to us all,'' Schweinsteiger told Bundesliga.de. ``BATE aren't a team that you can just turn up against and win 5-0.
``They almost got a draw in Valencia and they shouldn't be underestimated.''
BATE coach Viktor Goncharenko approaches the game knowing his side have booked their place in the Europa League due to a better head-to-head record against Ligue 1 side Lille.
There are no fresh injury worries for the Belarusian side, and Goncharenko could name the same starting XI that defeated Shakhtyor in the domestic league last weekend.
BATE midfielder Edgar Olekhnovich knows Bayern might be seeking to avenge their 3-1 defeat in Minsk but he is not focussing on that aspect of the match.
``It was a truly memorable game, it will not be forgotten,'' Olekhnovich told BATE's official website. ``Moreover, we did not win by accident.
``For God's sake, let Bayern grind their teeth. I'm excited about the game and I'm not paying attention to that.
``No one is speaking about our rival's desire for revenge in this team.''

Happy 697th anniversary.
July 24, 2011
Whose valor would be known 'er more
Brave Bruce's boldness would be seen
A' setting right the Scottish scores
He gathered up the Scottish bands,
Without allowing cowards rest
And by example lead the Clans
And so restored old Scotland's crest.
Yes, thank the men who followed Bruce,
Without them surfs today we'd be
All hangin high in Edward's noose,
Instead of men remaining free.
